Anmar's +100g zeovit tank build - back for updates again :D

[nmo0ory]

Hello Reefers
how are you
this is my first time doing a build here by my self
so i have couple of tanks before and i have lot and lot of frags
i love collecting frags
so i decided to make a new tank for frags

i have already redsea reefer 250 connecting to it a 30g frag tank and its full
so i am making this new tank for frag as well and i might connect all the tanks together in one sump


so lets have some details about the tank i am building
it is going to be a glass tank
dimensions is
150cm*60cm*35cm (~59in*23.6in*13.7in )
it will be 10mm glass thickness
for the overflow i will make it external overflow box
in one of the side the glass will be down about 2-3cm so the water flow to the box


for the stand i was looking around and was going to use steal on it
then i change it to stainless steel
it is under making it should be finish in 2 days i got the idea from this photo i am making exact same and i will add wood in top

but i have a quotations : should i add legs to it ? or i don't need it ?

for the sump still i have no idea how i will make it
i want something big so later on i can connect the 3 tanks together

this is an overview of what i want to make
i will share some photo very soon

please give me some feedback as i will need it

here is some of the tank photo and the overflow box

and the overflow box

here is what's it look like in one side so the water will flow to the overflow box

i remove one side of the overflow glass it was holding it before and i drill it

Looking good! Did you build the tank yourself or have it built by someone? It looks like you've got a really nice setup planned.

Thank you <3
yes someone build it for me
but there is some part i will change it for example the corner i don't like it i might remove them or change the color to black

there is some update to the overflow box i will share it today as i am putting the silicon now to it

 

[nmo0ory]

ok here is an update
thing is moving fast

i have install the overflow box
it was my first time using the silicon and i hope it will go well
here is some photo of the tank

so today i went to pick up my stand
and its turn out amazing
in the top i will add a sheet of wood and lucky me its all next to each other
so i picked the stand and here is it

after that i went to cut the wood and pick it up

i was going with the painted wood to handle water
but its not important to me its only to level the tank so i went with small one

i will share some photo of the tank with the stand today as well after i set it up

 

[nmo0ory]

ok so i setup the stand and put the wood and its turn out to be great!!!
here is photo of the stand

there is a windows behind it i might close it cuz no need for it i have another one in the room
there was a cupboard in this place when i move it lucky me i found an old outlet so this will be great for me
i need to make sure its working and i will put here all my electricity

then i start to fill the tank with tap water just to make sure no leaks or any thing

here is some photo of all the 3 tanks togither... soon i will change the stand for all the old tank as well

filling and testing for couple of days

 

[nmo0ory]

still i am trying to finger out what the sump size and how to make it
need some suggestion

 

[nmo0ory]

its been more than a year without any update of the build a lot of stuff happens to the tank and unfortunately it crack on me
but everything now is good will post some old updates of what has been going on today

 

[nmo0ory]

so on 2020 11feb i fill the tank with saltwater and connect it to my old system to the redsea reefer 250

everything was going great
after 1 day i transferred everything from the small tank on the corner to the frag system both are also connecting to the same sump as will show you in the next
here is after transferring them

after around 3 weeks i add another frag racks and start doing frags for most of the stuff i have
here what i got from them

 

[nmo0ory]

this is a simple connection i did to the sump
for now i used only one pipe
i was planing to use 3 later on with the new sump

gathering now some more photo from the phone and will post everything tomorrow

 

[ShepherdReefer]

Hello, great build and frags.

 

[nmo0ory]

Hello, great build and frags.

Thanks man
will post more photo of the frags i have now as well tomorrow

 

[nmo0ory]

good morning everyone
hope you are doing great
here i am back with some story on my tank

there will be lot of photo
1 photo better than 1000 word

so let go to it

i know that i will use lot and lot of salt and i have the option to use sea water but i keep it for later for larger project
for now i went with Instant Ocean
the problem is i am from Saudi Arabia and its so hard to get anything for saltwater aquariums so i managed to get +50 bucket of salt and gave my friend some and keep the other for me and for anyone with reef aquarium who need

for now i will keep using it but i am planing to change to TM later on

ok now back to the tank
i found more photo of the way i was going to do the pipe
i was going to do 3 return pumps so i can have 0 noise
here is some photo of the way i plan to do it

but didn't do it at that time as i didn't had my sump yet so i connected it to my old system, it was a redsee 250 sump but i don't know how everything fit on it i had 4 pumps on that sump

better look for the finish product

 

[nmo0ory]

here is some photo of the fraging station
i usually do everything with my friend as he is part of all this

 

[nmo0ory]
